Simply the best!
This is a superb device. Replaced our prior one with the same after it finally started leaking after literally multiple x/day use over 14 years. Gets the job done with great capacity, rapid heating (even to boiling), and multiple temperature options for various teas. Our family loves this thing and it’s a true bargain!

Leaky Kettle Upon First Use

This is my third one of these and they have all lasted years under daily use. It is also top rated by others. It is just well made and reliable.

Not worth the trouble
I received this as a gift four months ago, now it doesn’t work. It worked fine for a few months, then it would sometimes start flashing and beeping and not work. For a couple of weeks, I tried making sure it was level and secure, wiped down the counter, stand and bottom of kettle and then it would work. Now it happens every time I try to use it and there’s no getting it...

Well, it heats water
The kettle does its main job fine, but for the price I expected a whole lot more. The water gage, located inside the handle, is hard to read while filling. It also fills slower than the actual kettle - so if you depend on the gage you'll overfill the kettle. Once you heat the water it gives multiple beeps at a good volume. But your troubles begin there - the default set...

Different settings for different teas.
I love our new electric tea kettle. It has different timer options for the different types of tea, which is very nice if you drink different kinds. It’s pretty fast too. Plus it looks sharp. The only think is be careful. The outside can get hot. Only touch the handle.

A Perfect assistant
Although originally I bought this kettle for variable temps for my teas [for which it is ideal- no guessing about damaging delicate tea leaves], I have found so many more uses. Especially when I need a pot of boiling water for pasta, etc when preparing dinner. I start the water boiling in the kettle first- so much faster than just water in a pot on the stove. Or some in...

A good kettle despite design flaws
Good: Kettle heats up quickly, has a good range of temperatures to choose from, and holds the desired temp if you wish. It also is an attractive piece of equipment. Not so good: the opening on top is a bit small, making it a bit challenging to fill. Also, it’s hard to monitor the water level while filling because the viewing window is part of the handle.

A Very Affordable Toaster
It does everything I want a toaster to do and it does it pretty well. The only drawback to this toaster is the temperature settings dial. It's loose and not very accurate or consistent.

Great Kettle
Heats up quickly, temperatures are quite accurate, it’s a little hard to get all the water out. So just make sure you wipe down the inside so there’s no water left inside.

Too complicated
I got this because of all of the positive reviews. We thoroughly read the instructions but still can’t seem to figure out how to turn the thing off. Our last kettle just boiled water and then shut off but this comes back to life over and over no matter how we try to stop it.

Thank you for sharing your experience with the Cuisinart® PerfecTemp® Cordless Electric Kettle, model CPK‑17P1, and we’re sorry for the frustration you’ve encountered. Please note that there is a "Keep Warm" setting, automatically maintaining the selected temperature for up to 30 minutes, and lifting the kettle off the base after boiling will stop the heating cycle. If you prefer a simpler boil‑and‑shut‑off option, we do offer traditional stovetop kettles on Cuisinart.com that may better suit your needs. Thank you for your feedback as it helps improve future models.

Easy to use, quick to heat
This is a great kettle. It is easy to use, quick to boil water and it has all the different settings. I like that the base for the kettle is flush with the edge of the kettle. It doesn’t stick out like our previous kettle.

Stylish and practical.
Best kettle for making French Press coffee, it has temperature controlled buttons, making it easy to have the perfect coffee every time.
Also the right temperature for teas too.

Options!
I am really enjoying this electric kettle. I like the accuracy. Using a stove top kettle was a little more difficult to get the water temp just right for green tea.
